Über diesen Titel

Wan Rashid is among the first Iraqi-Kurdish children born in Guam. Her family, who lived originally in northern Iraq, sought asylum in the United States after experiencing years of violence and persecution in Iraq. Today, Wan is Co-Founder & Chief Executive Officer of Effendi Foundation, a Tennessee-based non-profit that seeks to uphold and educate Kurdish-Americans about their civil rights.

In our conversation, Wan talks briefly about the culture that shaped her, her civil-society work, and she shares her thoughts on how to work with people who hold vastly different viewpoints.

This is the second part of a larger discussion. I Tarantino'd it a bit on this one, so keep an ear out for part one - later.
